Chapter 1236 "Encyclopedia" Plotinus
The next moment, a sweet white mist enveloped the earth.
Not only the third ring—even the second ring below it was gradually shrouded in thick white fog. Then the fog continued to sink and spread, gradually falling into the first ring and even the outer oasis.
The thirsty slaves, the injured, or the weak regained their vitality in the nourishment of the white mist. The air was no longer scorching, but moist and clean, as comfortable as strolling in a garden after rain.
When the mist cleared, Aiwass's carriage had mysteriously vanished, along with Baike and his guards.
At this moment, the entire land became damp, as if a heavy rain had washed the entire city clean.
That was not the water from the abyss summoned by the good Lord, with a faint fishy smell as if it had been soaked in corpses and flowed through mud... but nectar as sweet as honey.
Combined with the previous prophecy of the "Indigo King", people immediately realized what was happening.
The atmosphere suddenly became heated - people knelt on the ground enthusiastically, kissing the thin pool of water like shadows, and sipping the unfamiliar clearness and sweetness.
Ordinary people may not realize the problem here.
The third circle consists of important figures who know many secrets. They can better understand the difficulty behind this matter.
Only the First Source River has the power of creation, just like the fog monster, which also needs water but can create fog out of thin air.
Even the Good Lord can only call for the bath water that soaks the Abyss Heavenly Master from the Great Abyss, because even the Abyss Heavenly Master cannot create anything out of thin air.
But Wu Tiansi, as the new Tiansi who inherited the path of love from Xue Tiansi, is the current controller of the Source River of Creation!
Aiwass originally just wanted to diffuse his blood through the "humidifier" to give those who greeted him a compliment, a blessing, and a gift... but he didn't expect Wu Tiansi to eat all the blood.
——Completely unconsciously, without either Aiwass or Wu Tiansi realizing it, Aiwass used the pastoral method on Wu Tiansi!
After tasting the blood offered by Aiwass, Wu Tiansi felt an extraordinary sense of joy. She was so happy that she used her true power—the pure mist she created with all her might was enough to cover the entire Holy Spring City, and even more!
If this mist condenses into dew, it becomes the legendary "Fountain of Life." While it doesn't grant immortality or eternal beauty as the legends say, it does have the ability to heal nearly any wound, as it was one of the Master's former powers.
As the banquet host's apostle, the divine power that Wu Tiansi originally controlled was to provide fine wine and sweet spring water!
This was the pure spring from the divine realm that the banquet host used to entertain the guests. It was indeed a true miracle when it landed in the material world - not to mention that Wu Tiansi worked so hard that he spilled the drink, which was originally only to be enjoyed at the banquet host's banquet, all over the city.
——It even soaked the sand outside the oasis, making it seem as if it was shrouded in shadow.
In Anxi, where water is more precious than life, most people would never see the question "What would happen if enough water was sprinkled on the sand?" That would definitely be regarded as desecrating the water source, and they would be thrown into a salt pond and dehydrated to death.
So for them, they can only compare it to "a divine shadow covering the earth."
Those civilians and slaves who were not qualified to enter the second circle... and those vagrants who were not even qualified to enter the city-state, also thought of the miracle that the "Indigo King" had appeared before.
They knelt on the ground and touched the "gravel that was lost in the shadows" with their tongues.
This was absolutely impossible in the past.
"It tastes like honey, it really tastes like honey!"
Someone shouted.
Screaming hysterically, half crying, half laughing.
It's not because of the wetness and sweetness on the tongue, but because of the approaching prophecy.
Seeing people's almost crazy behavior, those who originally did not believe also began to hesitate.
Some people tried to taste it, and some touched it with their fingers - the cold, damp, unfamiliar touch made them shudder.
In the first circle, the female benefactor riding on an elephant also witnessed this scene.
She looked at the crowd's enthusiasm with some confusion, and murmured softly, "Is the prophecy...really going to come true?"
"Impossible, beautiful Mahidevran!"
The benevolent master on the desert boat heard her whisper and said loudly and firmly, "We all know that 'Rest' is just a scam. Don't fool yourself! When Rest was founded, the Winged Ones had already lost their prophetic authority—you know that!"
But that was more of an explanation to himself than a refutation of Mahid Furlangshan.
His words were extremely firm, but there was an unconcealable confusion hidden in them.
The guards and followers of the good masters did not dare to say anything about this.
They kept their heads down and remained silent, fearing their hosts would notice them and ask, "What do you think?"
——Even the concubines and confidants who seem to be unattainable in the eyes of others, actually yearn for the existence of the "savior" in their hearts.
Meanwhile, Aiwass was unaware of the commotion and dispute. Even Encyclopedia and his followers were completely unaware of what was happening.
They quietly flew into the air and left the place under the cover of white fog. Following Baike's guidance, they headed to his temporary residence.
"Please reintroduce yourself to us, Mr. Encyclopedia."
Aiwass said with a smile.
Mu and Zhu Tang also came over.
They also didn't expect to meet their comrades-in-arms who had shared life and death with them in such a foreign country.
"That's right," Zhu Tang chimed in, "If you hadn't told me, no one would have known you held such a high position!"
Hearing this, Aiwass couldn't help but glance at Zhu Tang.
——Aren’t you the same?
But come to think of it... the members of the archaeological team at the time were almost all renowned experts. With such strength and the confidence to venture into ancient ruins, their social status couldn't have been much lower.
Both "Chongbo" and "Wanderer" were legends in their respective fields. Zhengxian was the chief disciple of the Mage Tower Master and the future Mage Tower Master. Zhu Tang was the head of the Imperial Ceremonial Officers. Only Xiaomao and Mr. Mu lacked a solid foundation, but that was because they were relatively young and at least considered geniuses.
Now it seems that "Encyclopedia" is indeed not simple.
"That's not true... I forgot to introduce myself to you. My real name is Plotinus. Please just call me by my first name."
The Encyclopedia, also known as the Dream Monk named Plotinus, smiled bitterly and said humbly, "I only got this robe after my return. I have to thank you, Your Holiness. If you hadn't given me the opportunity, I really wouldn't have had the chance to become a priest of Amon."
"Amon?"
Zhu Tang asked curiously, "Isn't it Atun?"
"Aton is the Sun of the Celestials," Aiwass said, needing no explanation from the encyclopedia, "and Amun is the second sun we see—the one killed by sacrifice and language."
"I'm certainly far from qualified to be a priest of the Aten," Plotinus said, "but because I witnessed the existence of the god Amun with my own eyes and brought back invaluable lost knowledge, I was promoted to a priest of Amun. From now on, I will be responsible for offering sacrifices and praising Amun."
After his careful explanation, Aiwass and Zhu Tang finally understood what had happened.
As dream-wandering monks, they have an "internet library in their brains." Therefore, their status is largely determined by their "contributions."
The "video materials" brought back by Plotinus this time are extremely valuable - he has become the first person in the country to study Amon, and even brought back many lost ancient runes.
Although some of the archaeological findings will be shared jointly with Professor Budd, the Horus people actually don't care much about this matter... They don't care about academic titles, but care more about collecting and preserving knowledge.
This achievement was enough to earn him a promotion to high priest. Among Horus' nine high priests, the Aten priest held the highest position, equivalent to a chancellor. The remaining priests, while offering sacrifices to each of the nine gods, were also in charge of a department.
Among them, Amon, as the only deceased god among the nine gods, is responsible for "history".
"I came to Holy Spring City this time to serve as a clerk... to record this unprecedented event."
Plotinus said seriously: "At the same time, I also have another mission -
"If Yuan Tiansi comes, I will join the battle."
This may sound a bit presumptuous, but Aiwass knows that "Encyclopedia" is not an arrogant person.
But looking at Plotinus at this moment, he is so serious, proud and confident.
It was as if he really had the power to stop Yuan Tiansi.
